Chapter 13: Brutal Street Fighting

"The devil's marksmanship is really good." Shen Chen was taken aback, but quickly returned to normal and smiled.

"You-aren't afraid of death at all?" Zhang Chengfu didn't know what to say, but he was more worried than Shen Chen, he didn't even dare to imagine Shen Chen's bloody appearance after being shot.

"The more afraid you are of dying, the faster you will die." Shen Chen packed up his things and said, "It's so strange to fight, if you want to live a long time, there are bullets coming at you; If you let it out, you'll be fine. ”

Zhang Chengfu smiled bitterly again and again, and said: "Don't say it, there are really such strange things in war. Some people, the bullet seems to be hiding from him, and we all call this kind of person 'gun leakage'. ”

Shen Chen blinked his eyes wide and grinned, "Didn't you say that I was also a 'leaky child'?" ”

Zhang Chengfu laughed twice, neither saying yes nor saying no, but there was undoubtedly a tacit implication.

The two men packed up neatly, each carrying the captured first aid kits, bullet boxes, and grenades, before sneaking back towards the position of the national * army.

It was already early in the morning, and in another hour or two, it would be dawn. Shen Chen did not stubbornly ask to continue to stay and fight this time, because she had a relatively clear understanding.

There is such a big gain tonight, in addition to sniper skills, the biggest advantage is the inherited night eye. When it was dawn, although she may still have an advantage in marksmanship, she was on the same level as the devil in terms of observation. Outnumbered, although she ignores life and death, she will not be brutal.

"Why do you like to kill devils so much?" On the way, Zhang Chengfu couldn't suppress the doubts in his heart and asked in a low voice.

Shen Chen's footsteps paused, and then continued to move forward, and it took a long time before he said something that Zhang Chengfu didn't understand, "It's cooler to kill devils." And, I think there will be a hopeful future. ”

*********************************************************************

The Japanese artillery fire was once again vigorous, and the positions of the Nationalist Army were enveloped in fierce artillery fire, and large areas of earth, wood chips, and stones flew into the air.

In the distance, a Japanese officer pulled out his command knife and howled, and the soldier lying on the ground immediately got up and bent down to charge. In just a few moments, the Japanese officer suddenly fell down like a log, and the soldiers under his command had no commander, and the formation began to riot.

Aim at the stars and fire! Shen Chen, Zhang Chengfu, and other special shooters of the National * Army hid in their respective positions and shot hateful bullets at the attacking devils.

The battle is still going on in the streets, brutal and fierce. The Japanese army is increasing its troops, and the national * army is also increasing its troops, and the two sides are fighting more vigorously and launching bloody battles.

Street fighting, also commonly known as "urban warfare", is because street fighting is a street-by-street, house-by-house battle, usually in a city or a large village.

Because of the specific environment, street fighting has two distinctive characteristics:

First, it is hand-to-hand combat between the enemy and us, which is very cruel. Since the battles are almost always based on infantry light fire assaults, and they are all carried out within visual range, the terrain is complex and unpredictable, so in street battles, heavy weapons are useless.

Moreover, unlike the vast space of field warfare, in street fighting, the mobility of troops is severely restricted; The limited field of vision makes it very inconvenient to observe, shoot, and coordinate, and in many cases the combat formation of the troops is fragmented, so they have to be dispersed into various units to fight independently.

Second, the enemy and the enemy are mixed with each other, and the dog's teeth are intertwined, which is very dangerous. Because there is no clear battle line, the enemy and the enemy are mixed, forming a state of mutual stalemate, and the attacking side is in the open and the defending side is hiding in the dark, which increases the difficulty and risk of this kind of military action.

Tall buildings and underground bunkers are a great place to hide snipers, "you don't know who the enemy is or where the bullets are coming from until someone shoots at you." Surprise ambushes and unguardable snipers often make the attackers tremble and fall into the shadow of panic and fear.

Street fighting is not familiar to the national * army, and the Japanese army is not good at street fighting. Or to put it this way, street fighting is a nightmare for any modern army, because the two armies are intertwined, the view is blocked, and the heavy firepower is all useless. Whoever has more people, familiar with the terrain and ingenious fortifications, will have the advantage.

Even in later generations, weapons were greatly improved, street fighting was still brutal and bloody, and the defending side was still advantageous. Take the Grozny street battle as an example, according to statistics, it was the most brutal and bloody street battle since the Vietnam War. Since 1994, two large-scale street battles have broken out between the Russian army and the illegal Chechen forces in Grozny, the capital of Chechnya.

Because Grozny was originally built in accordance with the requirements of the battle fortress, the fortresses in the city are dotted with dense spider webs. When the Russian army entered the city, it was like entering a labyrinth, and it could not touch the north, and it had superior weapons and equipment but could not give full play. Chechen armed snipers, on the other hand, can take advantage of the familiar terrain and hide in the shadows as if practicing shooting, shooting targets one by one.

At the end of the first street fighting in 1995, it is said that only one officer and ten soldiers of a regiment of more than 1,000 Russian troops who broke into the city left alive.

The second street battle in Grozny took place in 1999, and the Russian army was strewn with corpses, more than 1,000 soldiers died, and even the commander-in-chief of the Russian front, Major General Malofeyev, was shot dead by snipers. This small small city has become an eternal pain in the hearts of Russian soldiers.

Judging from the above, the national * army was able to fight fiercely with the Japanese army and repeatedly fight with the Japanese army by virtue of its tenacity and numerical superiority in street fighting. But the reversal of the whole overall situation is not in this battlefield, but in the periphery, in Jinshanwei, where the devil is about to land.

Shen Chen pulled the bolt, retracted the shell and loaded the bullet, aimed at the devil, and fired a killer shot. The blood turned into flowing coals of fire in her body, aiming, firing, pulling the bolt...... Re-aim, re-fire, re-pull......

The thrill of killing can't offset the worry of a reversal of the tide of battle, but Shen Chen knows that she can't change the overall situation now except for killing more devils. People are soft-spoken, who will believe what she says?

Moreover, Shen Chen became more and more disappointed with the commander of the national army. Their abilities are really enough, but they are still stubborn and self-serving, and they don't know how to be flexible.

Anyone who has seen Chinese soldiers fighting on the battlefield will not doubt their bravery. But the commander wasted this bravery in vain, to the grief of the onlookers.

The commander-in-chief of the Battle of Songhu was Zhang Zhizhong, but he was known for his political acumen rather than his military prowess. The tactic of throwing troops into the crowd one by one may have originated from China's backward practice of civil war, and is the traditional tactic of the Chinese* army, which lacks heavy weapons, transport vehicles, and modern equipment.
